Hey guys, i need some help with replacing a Blade Vertigo 2008 14M kite bladder. Basically its not worth repairing the LEI bladder and i need a new one, i was just searching the net and found out that extremekites in NSW stock the blade kite's, is any one off this forum from that shop, and know if you stock these bladders? Any help much appreciated.. i tryed there contact thingy but it keeps saying stupid **** to do with validity and hasnt sent

They're unhappy kites - if you know what I mean.

Try Moti Levi, They'll probably give you a quote on a new bladder etc...

oh god why didnt i just save my peni's and get the switchblade, stupid i am, ah well ive always been unlucky. the guys from SHQ told me to give them a call too, maybe ill just do that tomorrow and see how i go, thanks!

Hi,

I have had Blade kites for a couple of years. Seems you purchsed a secondhand kite and are trying to blame the product for your problems.

Out of all the Blade kites sold onle 2 that I no of have had blader problems both caused by the owners.

im not blaming anything on anything im going by what ive heard by experienced kiters, they have said they have had bladder problems, all im doing is asking, since i now own one, i would just like to know if i do get a new bladder if its going to be fualty as well and blow up again like the last owner had, that is all.

How do these Blade kites perform? Don't know much about them but late models are super cheap second hand, and they don't appear to move, what's the go?

gday mate ive had blades for 3 seasons now ill admit the first one had some issuses with valves popping out, but at my local there was about 4 people with the same kite and mine was the only one and they gave me a new bladder under waranty and that fixed it, as for the newer ones dunno anyone that has the 09 vertigo but i had 2 09 triggers and love them, seems they really cleaned up on the construction the vavling system is completly different and i havent had any issues with it yet an it get hammerd, prob about 7 people at my local riding the triggers now, they are pretty cheap which is a good thing, i dont really see them anywere else so thats prob y they dont sell, not that popular
as for the spare parts your better off ringing glascraft i think used to stock them but im under the impression blade aus is selling here any more its under blade international or something like that, and theve auctioned off all there gear, so somwhere out there is a new bladder for you, but your prob better off giving it to moti then u dont have to dick around with it
